Conservation Agriculture is based on the practical application of three
interlinked principles of: (i) Continuous no or minimum mechanical soil
disturbance (no-till seeding/planting and no-till weeding);  (ii) permanent
maintenance of soil much cover (crop biomass, stubble and cover crops); and
(iii) diversification of cropping system (rotations and/or sequences and/or
associations, involving annuals and perennials including legumes), along
with other complementary good agricultural practices (more at:
www.fao.org/ag/ca)
